And CPU-scaling beyond 4 cores is simply a non-issue in games that are bottle-necked by the GPU, such as Metro: Last Light. The extra CPU cores will not increase performance, no matter how many they are.

Which is exactly why such support is aimed at people with the highest end GPUs (or particular for this case, SLI). This has always been the case however, gaming performance will generally depend on the GPU.
Extra cores will everntually make a difference, but I don't expect a huge increase from the CPU for Last Light. It's the GPU support that caught my attention (won't know if it's "laughable PR talk" until the tech heads disect it). So it's pointless to assume either way.

Yeah. But when are you going to build that new comp?

3.5 weeks. The wait is truly killing me!

I wander how you're gonna feel when you have the parts at home and you're booting up for the first time. I love that feeling (who doesn't?).
Have you thought about which games you're going to run first?
With a new system I always dreamt of the super good looking games I would install early just to marvel at the graphics. But I made sure my very first game would be a medium good looking title (like say, Bioshock), and save the best or greatest looking for last (Crysis, or Oblivion since I always plan my system with a better looking Elder Scrolls in mind).
